 AI Secret Santa 2014 Important Dates:Thursday, November 20 - REGISTRATION CLOSED (pairings happen sometime during this period here and time to get them poo poo) Monday, December 12 - Ship-by Date: Ideal ship-by date. PLEASE do everything you can to have your gift on its way on or before this day. Shipping during the holidays can lag and have lots of problems. This gives them roughly two business weeks before Christmas day. Tuesday, January 1 - PoniesAteMyBagel-Day (Deadbeat Cut Off): If you have not provided proof of shipping by this date, you will be considered a deadbeat. Registration:CLOSED PostYou MUST post in this thread. In your post please have: - Shipping preference: No international or International - Any specific requests. - You may include an optional "do not send" list. Don't want a bag of Ol' Roy showing up in the mail? Say so. Rules:- To be eligible for AISS you must have posted at least 5 constructive posts in AI within the past 6 months but before today (no flooding with posts at last minute). I will be using your profile to check this. - We are doing a proof of shipment rule. no proof = you're a deadbeat. When you ship your gift, you must provide proof of shipment. Email automotiveinsanity@gmail.com the username/userID of the person you're buying for and the tracking information. If anything goes pear shaped, at least we can figure out where. - If you hit any speed bumps, have any questions, or need anything at all you can post, email or PM me. Gift costPlease try to keep your gift in the $10-20 range. If you can't afford this plus shipping don't register. You may spend more than $20 on your AI:SSee if you'd like but please do not go overboard. - There will be a cap of $50. Please do not spend more than $50 on gifts for someone on the internet. Unless you're incredibly wealthy or it's loving hilarious - If you will be moving or traveling a lot during a gift time please say so in your email and/or post so that I/your santa knows when and where the best time to send your gift is. Proof of shipmentYou must provide proof of shipment before January 1 or you will be considered a deadbeat santa. Please put the tracking number in your email. If you do not have a tracking number, you must EMAIL or PM me a photo/scan of the shipping receipt. Accepted types of proof: - Tracking number from UPS, Fedex or DHL (please use one of these services unless you really can't for whatever reason) - Photo or scanned image of your shipping receipt with your username written on it. Most receipts have the zip code of the recipient, so this is how I will check these. I don't want purchase reciepts of whatever gifts you buy. I want SHIPPING proof. Shipping Shipping is always a hassle. I know we can't force you to use one service over another, but be aware that you are responsible for what you ship. So take extra steps to make sure everything goes smoothly. Here are some tips: - Use USPS, UPS, DHL or Fedex if available. They offer easy tracking and TRACKING NUMBER IS MY PREFERRED FORM OF SHIPMENT PROOF - Write the addresses clearly on your box and TRIPLE CHECK THAT THEY ARE CORRECT!! A misspelled zip code can delay shipping for weeks, and a wrong address means no one gets a gift. If you have bad handwriting or don't want to mess up, consider copy/pasting and printing out the address emailed to you and then tape it to your box. - Pad your gifts well. Use good padding (plastic bags, newspaper, peanuts, etc) to keep items safe. - If you do decide to use USPS, keep in mind that they have flat rate boxes that ship for the same price as long as it's under 70 lbs. To those outside of the US: I will do my best to pair you with someone from your country if you want. I can't guarantee this, so please put in your post where you are willing to ship to some other shithole in the world, just in case. Please keep us updated. I will be following the thread to make sure everyone is still staying active. It'd be nice if you posted to let us know your status. It'd be even nicer if you posted once you've received your gift, photos are loved, but it isn't required. If you have ANY questions, concerns or anything you need at all. Please PM or email me!

Totally in! Shipping preference: USA please, though I'm ok with BC Canada since it isn't far. What's "Ol' Roy"?. Edit: Lol low quality dog food. On that note, for preferences I'm a medium in everything, enjoy interesting/weird snacks for anyone far away, neat stickers for my toolbox, and I pretty much like all cars.
